Wow, take a look at this.

Given the NDAA’s suspension of Habeus Corpus, “in the name of public safety” (the only legitimate way according to the Constitution), we now have the situation where a citizen can be detained indefinitely w/o charges, and where drones can be used to gather evidence against citizens in secret, BOTH perfectly legal*.

Since the NDAA passed without much guff, that is only minor ‘alarmist’ ramblings, the government must believe that people don’t care about the sixth amendment... and, given the widespread acceptance of the 2005 Kelo decision being a-ok**, we must not care about the fifth either. Since we don’t care about the fifth, we must not care if the Government is or is not prohibited from taking lives without the involvement of the Grand Jury.

All that combined with the media controlled by the government and I doubt we’d ever hear about either the drones assassinating or people being snapped up.
Interesting times.

* — If you ignore the sixth amendment; though they might say “technically they aren’t charged with a crime, therefore there is no criminal prosecution.”
** — Kelo’s decision was utterly laughable, the USSC said [basically] that the Government could seize any property as long as they could ‘project’ [read imagine] that it could bring public benefit... and that wholly separate from any actual benefit, given that the Kelo land has NEVER been developed.
